My only alternative is just taking out more loans... Which i may do. If I'm butting in deeper than i should, forgive me. But I want to suggest that taking on debt, especially for daily "consumption", in most cases is not wise. Quote Pro 22:7 The rich rules over the poor, And the borrower is servant to the lender. We should have ONE ruler over our life and if we subject ourselves to a lender it is very possible to get ourselves into a position where we are unable to respond to Him with full obedience without breaking an oath to repay. That is not a situation He wants us in. If we can simply trust that He funds what His will is, and wait for Him to do that His way, we can escape that potential trap. It may mean a period of enduring not having all we desire, but the price of getting out of debt (bondage) can be very, very high. It is much easier to bow the knee to a banker than it can be to wait on Him sometimes...but it is worth it. I'd just ask you to be very reticent and check with Him before taking on debt, for any reason. I marvel at how many churches burden their congregations with egregious debt to pay off in the name of pursuing a vision. I lost a position on a church board one time for taking that stance and got told I lacked faith Presumption is not faith....

Think beyond the birth, how long would it take to get another job and start earning etc..., just saying, and as always, I hope this helps, God bless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then increase your estimates on how long it will take you to get back to work and how long it will take you to pay the debt off by around 50-100% to help account for the unexpected. The change in hormones from pregnancy to post-pregnancy can certainly be rough on a person. Based on your situation you seem to have a lot of stress factors in your life as is without the pressure of a loan to pay off adding to it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell Him your needs and then sit back and see what He does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t like it I was so huge but it’s better than going into debt with loans. If you ask me. Debt will haunt you for years. While you’re young just work. It’s easier in the long run. Debt will chase you down and maim you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be some websites out there about home employment. I also think it's best to avoid any loans, if possible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
